Community Partnership Helps Feed More Than 100 Families in Far Rockaway
Community School Director Rasahn Staley coordinates weekly food deliveries for families in need.
Queens HS for Information Research and Technology (QIRT) has been working to mitigate food insecurity in the Far Rockaway community since September. Each week, QIRT serves Grab&Go grocery packages to up to 100 families with more than 50% of those families returning multiple times. The service promotes healthy eating, so Community School Director Rasahn Staley reports fresh produce is included.
